You should bring Srikanth nagoti next, he's a great filmmaker to look out for in telugu cinema

Why don't you bring someone from other art fields than proper film makers ,like an author.introduce us to some book reading

Really matured talk..... Ravikanth go big man. You have amazing writing sensibility... Especially when you don't be ashamed to being represented yourself in Sita character in Sai Rajesh's perspective ... That shows maturity. Let's catch up in Vizag someday

[@mallik_raja]

Ernest Hemingway never encouraged writing drunk..that line ‘write drunk edit sober’ is apocryphal.. I liked the ending note abot Osho 😅

[@siddhusiddharth5257]

Big fan of Ravikanth perepu ❤ I saved K&is L from long time it's just a one click to go have watch always when I feel low ( confused minds )

[@koushiknemani5135]

You guys are on record and were being a lot more modest. TELUGU CINEMA is crumbling, by this i dont mean economically. But if cinema as this biggest effective artistic tool is just about numbers for telugu people, its doomed. As an aspiring one, it didn’t even cross me to stay back in Hyderabad coz it won’t matter. In my eyes, it has long been dead. Month of madhu was a saving grace but we failed it. It hurts from within to see how we’be become as cinema lovers. Good for the money earners.

[@NS-uj6wj]

Month of madhu lo Harsha scenes thappa everything else is bullshit, boredom is not artistic

It's concerning because producers have no shit with aet or the movie vallaki only money kavali. The impose it on audience now ppl just see collections ochindhi kadhaa. It's fucked up tbh some movies like pareshaan month of madhu or monna double engine come to save the art but none watches them

[@MaheshReddyB]

Great job Santosh and Hriday… by far one of the best interaction/conversation… you guys pushed it a notch up.. would love to see such free flowing conversations.. shout out to Ravikanth perepu… I loved tail end of the pod cast… great job and keep rocking .. all love and all the best🎉

[@prudhvireddy1337]

[@climatechampsakp]

Hey Hriday and Santosh, You need to brush up your general knowledge. Did you know that the Vizag Film Society (VFS) is one of India's oldest film societies, affiliated with the Federation of Film Societies of India (FFSI)? They frequently hold film screenings, with a focus on showcasing movies from different languages and international cinema. Moreover, they've been known to organize short film competitions in the past. By the way, I've been really enjoying your podcasts, especially the ones featuring Indraganti and Nandini Reddy. Great work!

[@stallione7470]

Behind the camera guys seem more intelligent and informative than otherwise .i think this podcast is a good medium for them to vent out their thoughts to us people .

Massive Update. SS Rajamouli's father star writer read my epic introduction star scene and is blown saying it brilliant. He confidently tell that if I do the star debut last decade, I was easily wipe out Charan, NTR, Mahesh, Prabas, and Pawan from tyre one. He also tell if my star debut is happened in the 2000s, Rajamouli was direct it and got global attention first only. He was suggested title like Theeta Purugu The Rat and but I am do the superior judgment and is decide that Baanisa was the title do justice. A new star is born 🔥

[@vinodreddy_27]

This is the best podcast of Permit Room for me. Just because I connected to almost all conversations. I quote the line from The perks of being a wallflower. " we accept the love we think we deserve" and the lines you mentioned towards the end. "we need guts to accept the love as it brings responsibility of giving it back etc and sometimes we doubt whether we deserve it"

[@user-ny5ic8qo5p]

Santosh bro you might want to avoid throwing guesses when you are not sure. Disturbing the pace.

[@sai6275]

SRV clearly said that scene was not for critics..why would a filmmaker spend so much time to deal with critics, don’t make a critic so important. Filmmakers are not that dumb to consider & make movies for critics. It’s part of story & not for whatever reasons everyone is speculating.

[@sai6275]

Hosts pls do some research before making statements about telugu films not having more content oriented movies. They are many recently not just mass movies. Don’t just say we don’t have any.. we had so many throughout the years, pls research & have notes or proofs for statements whatever your making. Its not cool to just randomly quote stuff.

[@tyagarajakinkara]

Hrday ranjan is not a great conversationalist and reviewer As the reviewer for film companion south, he recently avoided reviewing ambajipeta marriage band! All his career, he avoided reviewing great films like Nanndi, Skylab, major etc which redefine filmmaker choices in telugu cinema.. He also avoided reviewing films like Mail,. Always he reviewed shit movies and made his reviewer career a prop for amping up his standup comedian job.

Either you completely speak in English or completely in Telugu. Don't mix both, its soo disgusting. Learn from The Ranveer Show

[@SrikarChahasti]

I don't think Ravi is a new age filmmaker. His movies don't offer any new perspectives or anything innovative in storytelling. I didn't like his movies except for Kshanam.

[@VocMonk]

He will eventually become sensible director for sure. now he's just enjoying his own space in writing & craft. Next 3 films will be very crucial in his filmography

[@SrikarChahasti]

@@VocMonk What do you mean he's enjoying his own space? It gives the impression that he is taking his audience for granted. Each film holds significance for any filmmaker. I didn't see any distinctiveness in his portrayal of relationships. His movies lacked a genuine sense of reality for being labeled as new age filmmaker. His characters struck me as pretentious and the storytelling seemed shallow and failed to question relationships. It felt like cinematic relationships.

[@VocMonk]

@@SrikarChahasti Myself, you & Ravikanth belong to different worlds, background, family, Environment. Let him write something by clubbing what he lived in & he watched growing up. we shouldn't have problem with it As long as he is getting lost in his own writing space and fetching producers,earning his own bread. Btw, did he ever labeled himself as New age film maker? Sorry if I've missed it.

[@SrikarChahasti]

@@VocMonk If he's sharing his life experiences, I have to say it came across as dull. As mentioned earlier, the depiction of relationships felt more like a scripted movie scenario than something authentic unlike the genuine feel you get from films like Arjun Reddy or Care of Kancharapalem. The question arises: Is he making films for personal satisfaction or for the audience? My concern is going to theaters to experience unique movies and not being part of the group that misses them in theaters and then complains on OTT platforms. So I do point out the shortcomings. In movies like Krishna and his Leela, and Bubblegum, the point he was trying to make seemed outdated and overused and lacked freshness. It feels like he's recycling themes from older films. Perhaps you're defending him due to a personal connection but it's crucial to recognize and address his shortcomings rather than justifying them. I remember him being labeled as a new-age filmmaker in an interview and while he agreed to it, the execution of his ideas hasn't meet that expectation.

[@VocMonk]

@@SrikarChahasti wish I have a personal connection with him so that I could gain knowledge on editing. Whom do you think new age film makers from South at the moment? What's your definition?
